The Voyager crew detects a clue that may lead to a way home, but there’s a problem: two warring civilizations and their centuries-long conflict stand in the way! Advised by Neelix to steer clear, Janeway nevertheless leads her crew into the conflict zone in the hopes of stopping the war once and for all.

In this episode of the Positively Trek Book Club, hosts Bruce and Dan discuss Star Trek: Voyager #3: Ragnarok by Nathan Archer. We talk about the novel’s premise, the warring races, the war, Voyager’s tactics, a diplomatic away mission, the First Federation, and wrap up with our final thoughts and ratings for Ragnarok.
